This paper summarizes some of the techniques used in N.A.C.A. research programs, in flight and in tunnels, to solve aircraft icing problems and it indicates the scope of the data avail-able for the design of aircraft icing protection systems. Sufficient data have been obtained, generalized where possible, and techniques have been established whereby icing -protection requirements for most aircraft components can be determined sufficiently accurately for engineering purposes. The Appendices discuss the icing facilities at the N.A.C.A. Lewis laboratory in detail, specific test equipment and techniques used in conducting tests in icing wind tunnels, and several icing instruments.
